Two of Jeannie's children were involved in Highfields' programs. Her son Nate attended Highfields' Residential Treatment Program. Her daughter Erika graduated from Ingham Academy.
After Nate returned home, he continued working with Highfields' staff to make plans for his future. Unfortunately, his life was taken from him as he was trying to turn his life around.
Jeannie has a big heart for the students in Highfields' Residential Program. She believes the program was the best thing to happen to her son.
"Highfields is still a big part of our lives."

Jeni and
her husband obtained guardianship of their nephew, Ryan*, when he was 3 ½ years old. Ryan is deeply affected by trauma from his past. He suffers from extreme fear, and can be abusive.
After years of struggling, Jeni called for help and was referred to counselor Gayla Ignacio in Highfields’ Home-Based therapy program.
Gayla specializes in Play Therapy with children. She started guiding Jeni on how to interact with Ryan and how to therapeutically play with him. Through therapy, Ryan is beginning to heal from his traumatic past.
“He’s excelling in so many ways because of the help he has had.”
